Are you ready to be part of the world's largest humanitarian network? Job Description: Our blood donors are ordinary people – high school students, factory and office workers, business executives, parents and grandparents, and people from every walk of life.

The employee will need to share regional daytime coverage  as well as on-call coverage  for overnights, weekends and holidays with other ARC Physicians.
